SPIDER - III. Environmental dependence of the Fundamental Plane of early-type galaxies
We analyse the Fundamental Plane (FP) relation of 39993 early-type galaxies (ETGs) in the optical (griz) and 5080 ETGs in the near-infrared (NIR; YJHK) wavebands, forming an optical+NIR sample of 4589 galaxies. We focus on the analysis of the FP as a function of the environment where galaxies reside. We characterize the environment using the
